Civil War Income Tax Search

To fund the Civil War, a direct tax on property and an income tax were levied by an act of 5 August 1861. Although later found to be unconstitutional, the Internal Revenue Assessment lists for the period beginning 1862 may provide the post office address, amount of annual income, value of articles subject to the property tax and the amount of tax owed.
Please note that the periods covered by these lists varies by state.
